This property is as stunning as it appears in the listing. Multiple levels are nicely terraced for ambience and privacy. One level has 5 bedrooms in an arc, each with private baths and outdoor seating. Another has an oversize living/dining room with ample outdoor seating and dining. The master suite is on the highest level, tastefully appointed and with a private terrace. The infinity pool is on its own level, with lounges, bar/dining, and bath/shower. The grounds are immaculate (hardly a weed or an out-of-place leaf) and the whole property is spotlessly clean.
The space is perfect for large families or groups of friends and one need never leave. Parking is plentiful, the pool is large, and guests can easily spread out without getting in each other's way. The kitchen is well stocked. Mariagraza is a delightful addition who prepares and serves up fine local cuisine in style (groceries are extra - Mariagraza provides receipts for her expenses). Wine and olive oil can be purchased on site and the neighborhood's members-only club is a short (less than 1 km) walk down the (steep) hill.
Camilla is an exceptionally communicative hostess who answers emails or VRBO queries within minutes and goes out of her way to address every need.
Porto Santo Stefano is a charming town about 10 minutes away by car. We found it nicer than Porto Ercole, with more restaurants and night life. The grocery store there is large and well stocked.
All in all, we had a wonderful time.
